one more pontoum, and then i’ll write

these poems have a way of sifting

the thoughts and bringing to the top

what really is, and really is not

these poems have a way of sifting

through memories and things i deny

what really is, and really is not

and do i want to know who i really am

through memories and things i deny

these poems crack and confuse and show

that i do want to know who i truly am

in lines too short to truly know

these poems crack and confuse and show

the thoughts that are at the top

in lines too short to truly know

if only one more pontoum for me to write
